UVA Health seeks a strategic and transformative executive to serve as its next Chief Information Officer (CIO). This is a unique opportunity to support UVA Health’s vision and mission through leveraging technology.
UVA Health is a $4.5 billion integrated academic health system with a world-class academic medical center that includes a level 1 trauma center, a level IV NICU, the first NCI-designated Comprehensive Cancer Center in Virginia, and UVA Health Children’s, the #1 pediatric hospital in Virginia. UVA Health also encompasses three community hospitals, a specialty rehabilitation hospital, and an integrated network of primary and specialty care clinics throughout Virginia. Year-over-year, the integrated academic health system has continued to grow into a regional powerhouse for clinical care and an internationally known location for research.
The Chief Information Officer (CIO) will report to the Executive Vice President for Health Affairs, who provides executive oversight for the health system, University Medical Center, UVA Community Health, and the UVA School of Medicine, among other areas. The CIO will be responsible for providing strategic leadership and operational oversight of information technology across the integrated academic health system, including the hospitals and clinics. A key focus will be leveraging technology to support UVA Health’s continued integration and to advance a unified, system-wide approach. Key priorities for the CIO will include articulating and advancing a clear IT strategic plan that aligns with UVA Health’s business and operational goals; cultivating a high-performing, collaborative IT team that partners with stakeholders with a service mindset; and, developing a forward-looking technology roadmap that harnesses analytics, automation, and emerging innovations—such as artificial intelligence—to drive system-wide innovation, efficiency, and value.
The CIO will be a strategic executive with a proven track record of leading and advancing technology within large, complex health systems. This individual will be a dynamic and engaging leader—an effective change agent who builds consensus through strong communication and interpersonal skills. As a visible and transparent presence across the organization, the CIO will foster a culture of collaboration and accountability, inspire high-performing teams, and drive transformative initiatives that support UVA Health’s continued growth and innovation.
